Are you saying you want to do something like: def function_vars(...): stylesheet = some_stylesheet navbarpad = some_navbarpad logo = some_logo return locals()
def some_action(): return function_vars() Yes, you can do that. Have you tried it and had a problem? Note, if function_vars is defined in a controller, either make sure it takes at least one argument or name it __function_vars -- otherwise, it will be accessible via URL.
